It certainly would have been a rip roaring ride Sidney. He did a great job at Ipswich and I am sure he would have done a great job for British Speedway. Sadly it wasn't to be and I, for one, believe that we are suffering today because of lack of foresight all those years ago.
I have read John Berry's excellent 'Confessions' Books and I admire his honesty, which may, in the end have supported Humphrey's view about him falling out with people. It should be said that he may not have done though.
I still often wonder how British Speedway would have fared had he (John Berry) taken the job on.
*I can highly recommend John Berry's Books to anybody interested in the History of British Speedway. Not sure if they are still available - but I got mine directly from 'BackTrack' if I remember correctly.
